Reviews
The Whisky Bar was a nice stop—the bartender was super cool, welcoming, and knowledgeable. Prices were generally average, although a few of the pours leaned on the higher side. The real highlight here was their flexibility in offering smaller pours (0.5 oz and 0.25 oz), allowing whisky enthusiasts to taste interesting and niche bottles at just a fraction of the full-pour price, around 1/3 to 1/6 the cost.
Their whisky selection was good, featuring some lesser-known and intriguing options that made exploring their menu enjoyable. The relaxed atmosphere and approachable staff added positively to the experience, making it a comfortable place to casually sample whiskies. If you’re in the neighborhood, it’s definitely a worthwhile spot to drop by and enjoy a dram or two without needing to commit to full pours.
That place was, in fact, not what we had expected, and did not have the cozy open vibe we were looking for. Cut to 5 minutes of frantically searching Google maps, facing away from the wind that kept pushing us off balance. I saw The Whisky Bar and we decided to give it a go. We walked in and immediately, the warmth and chill, open vibe was perfect. We looked at each other and said, “Yeah. Perfect.”
Since we were going to a concert, we didn’t want to get anything huge, so we ended up splitting the turkey club sandwich. It was delicious, as were the fries which were deliciously crispy on the outside but fluffy inside. I got a drink (the Blackberry Bramble, I think) that, tbh didn’t taste like there was any alcohol in it. My friend helpfully pointed out that, being called The Whisky Bar, they would probably make a good Old Fashioned (I asked for a bourbon OF). She was not wrong. I asked for (and received) an extra cherry, and was delighted to find that they were Luxardo–or at least not the awful cherries the average bars utilize.
The service was friendly, and prompt without hovering. Really lovely vibes and I look forward to going back, especially if there’s a show at The Moore, as it’s literally just down the street.
Going to a show at the Moore, we stopped in a bit early, and did a short happy hour bar hop.
No doubt, the staff are accomplished, and the cocktails rocked. Though he mentioned the French fries had a beer batter type coating on them, so we went for the tots which were a tad salty. I mean, fried food… well within norms. Next time, we’d probably ask for them ‘no salt.’
Decent prices, not sure if the Sunday early evening is a normal slow time, but we appreciated it.
Parking in BellTown, sort of a crap shoot with regular crowded times.
We’d go.back, but we have another in our neighborhood.
The fish n’chips is pretty good here, crispy with great portion.
The Old fashioned has a strong fragrance of citrus. Personally I think it is great but might not be ideal for heavy drinkers.
The Smokey and the Bandit is a little sweet for me, but the scotch fragrance is pretty strong and blended pretty well.
Overall, a recommended bar at downtown Seattle!
